I have to wonder if those die hard labor supporters are starting to get the hint that all this 'up talk' from labor about the economy, is just that, talk.

We are in very average shape and heading south pretty sharply,so brace yourselves, especially the believing labor followers.

Rechtub, see mate, it is you who claim a special under standing.
And in doing so infer I and my fellow travelers are wrong, ALWAYS.
The mirror on your wall, it can show who is under informed just look.
This country currently is far in front economically than the western world, our debt is far less than them all.
Every world financial institution will confirm that.
Our manufacturing is in trouble, it can not both compete with low prices and our high dollar.
But some times farm produce too can not get past that dollar.
For every job lost two are made, our unemployment is low compared with the whole of Europe and America.
Bloke, take the time to tell me why , under these current world wide conditions you think we are in troube but not those wishing they had our luck.
Mate until you stop your self indulgent niggle at Labor folk know you should look in that mirror, if you are game enough

Ah Poirot, sometimes its also good for a laugh, especially when stuff
happens in real life. I had a painter here for a couple of days and he repainted
my roof and finished yesterday. I was on the couch
having a snooze after lunch, when he came down to change the tin of
paint. This red car pulled up and out jumped a woman and rushed up
to him and gave him a huge hug. She asked how he was going and then
eventually got back in her car and drove off, saying she'd see him
again in 10 years. The painter was a little confused lol, wondering
if it was an old customer of his, but how would she know that he was
out here from Perth, painting? He was only a small fellow of around
70 kg and she kept going on how he had lost weight!

I checked in town this morning and sure enough, a fling of mine from
30 years ago had been back to town. She is what you would call a typical
ditzy blonde :) She went back to town saying that I had lost alot
of weight and it seems I had a couple of sons living with me.

A girlfriend of hers is going to let her know that she hugged the
wrong guy, but he had no complaints.

Must be nice being a young bloke Yabby.

Most of my old girlfriends need help getting out of the car, & can't rush anywhere, as they are likely to turn their walker over, if they go too quick, but thanks for reminding me of way back then.
